An eDream is a dream, big idea or breakthrough innovation that requires 'e' enablement to make it happen. Enablement is the sum of actions required to make an eDream happen. The successful Enablement of an eDream requires:
- People - stakeholders, supporters, providers and social circles
- Knowledge - Communities (Industries, Organizations, etc.) and Idea Spaces (Functional Knowledge, Domain Knowledge, etc.)
- Plan - a multiyear plan or a very concerted plan over 6 to 12 months
- Resources - time, money and other sacrifices for an unknown outcome
- Enduring Grit - perseverance and passion for long-term goals, the confidence to take risks
A dream to graduate from college, a big idea that is a cancer cure and a breakthrough innovation like the Apple iPhone may sound like they have little in common. Yet they have a lot in common when it comes to the Enablement to make them happen. Castellina in Tuscany, Italy and New York may have little in common, yet traveling there using planes, automobiles and GPS devices is similar.
Enablement or the 'e' in front the the word Dream, is the process to make something happen. It is the process of getting from point A to point B. While good ideas get all the fanfare, they may be as little as 1% of the process. Enablement is the other 99% consisting of People, Knowledge, Plan, Resources and Enduring Grit to make almost anything happen.
